Hello guys, I’m planning to do an Infiltrator with Myth Nex and Ortus, Mageslayer set and Elemental Balance rings, link is bellow. Would like to know what can I improve or if I did some mistake on the build. Thanks for your help.

Grim Dawn forum is the best.

Firstly making a separate thread wasn’t needed. You could’ve asked for advice on your previous Nex v Ortus thread

Secondly, any particular reason you want to pick Infiltrator?
I didn’t give it a hard look so even my setup could use a lot of improvements

-ABB doesn’t work with Dualwield
-Blade Trap doesn’t work on bosses
-You don’t have any auto-attacker
-Dual-wield nightblade melee w/o execution is never recommended

I didn’t touch devotions but TD doesn’t serve any purpose here

But Dualwield works when ABB in cd :slight_smile:

Still no reason to put more than 1 point into it :wink:
Also he didn’t have any NB WPS picked so even “filler” damage wouldn’t be upto the mark

Thanks. I’m learning mechanic and those details yet, so that helps a lot. I just would like to know what do you mean with an “auto-attacker”.

Well, DW and cold damage for Nightblade, and I choosed inquisitor because of the bonus of elemental damage, aether and chaos resistance, OA and Crit damage bonuses, most for that. Do you think Demolinist do better using Nex/Ortus with Elemental balance rings?

Why exactly Dualblades do not work with ABB? The former is just a passive buff with flat and percent damage bonuses, the latter is an active skill with %weapon damage.

Another thing I’m seeing on the foruns, is the overcap. If I would do Crucible, do you suggest all overcap or I can keep focus on elemental and Aether? There’s some thread I could read for get more informed about Crucible or building guide?

ABB only hits with off hand when using DW melee. So investing more than 1 point into it on a DW melee build feels like a waste to me

I never said anything about Dual Blades.
Dual wield =/= Dual Blades

With pistols ABB works with both off hand and main hand
